I recieved your letter in which you were so kind as to inform me what kinds of supplies might be useful to our sister Marks, and I meant when I should make a purchase of stores for myself in Philadelphia to bring here, to have got some for her also. But the infectious fever which took place there, drove us all away very suddenly, and made it too dangerous to go into the city to purchase: so...
[ Annapolis, 18 Jan. 1784 . Entry in SJL reads: “Mrs. Carr. Not send P. C. [Peter Carr] to Maury. Where is A. S. J. [Anna Scott Jefferson]. My health better.” Not found.]
Your bill for £10–5 in favor of Mr. Austin has been presented and paid. It greives me to inform you I am not able to furnish the residue of the sum you desired in any short time. I never in my life had such a right to be flush in money as at present, and yet never was so mortifyingly bare and helpless. I had a right to receive £800. in Richmond under an execution, and by some evasion of law, I...
In settling the accounts of our father’s estate we find Mr. Carr charged by Dr. Walker with the paiment of £200. and by Kippen & co. with £100. If both these charges were true he would have been overpaid £100. and his estate would now have to refund that sum with upwards of 20. years interest. I know he received the £100. from Kippen & co. because it was that which he lent me and for which I...
[ Annapolis, 19 Dec. 1783 . Entry in SJL reads: “Mrs. Carr. My request of W. S. [William Short] and orders to Key—ill health—heard only once from P. and L. [Polly and Lucy]. Not found.]
That you may have no uneasiness from what you will hear from Peter, I will mention to you that a worthless fellow, named Rind, wrote a libel on the inhabitants of Charlottesville and neighborhood, which P. Carr and G. Jefferson were imprudent enough to suffer him to communicate to them. Rind then pasted it up in Charlottesville, and from expressions of his, the suspicions were directed on all...
[ Annapolis, 7 May 1784 . Entry in SJL reads: “Mrs. Carr. Consign P.C. [Peter Carr] to Mr. Madison. Dabney also. Invitation to pass hot season at Monticello.” Not found, but see TJ to Madison, 8 May 1784. ]
[ Paris, 20 Aug. 1785 . Entry in SJL reads: “Mrs. Carr. See copy. By Mr. Fitzhugh.” Not found.]
[ Annapolis, 4 Dec. 1783 . Entry in SJL reads: “Mrs. Carr. A.S.J. Pats. [i.e., Anna Scott Jefferson, TJ’s sister, and Patsy, his daughter].” Not found.]
I recieved some days ago your favor of Dec. 15. and have so long delayed answering it because I was in daily expectation of receiving information of a considerable sum of money being lodged for me in Richmond. Tho I think this cannot fail to take place, and that very shortly, yet I have thought it necessary to acknolege in the mean time the receipt of your letter, and to mention to you my...
